In the second discussion of Hunger Games, my group mainly talked about how the Capitol and the districts of Panem are somewhat like the government of America. We were talking about how district 13 rebelled against the Capitol which shows how citizens rebel against their government.In situation with the Capitol and the districts, the districts are being put down by the greater power and for that the rebellion began.
The reason for the games is to mainly entertain the people of the Capitol. They put people in the game tokill each other and that's how the people of the Capitol get entertained. The government doesn't care for their people and they will just put anyone there so they could get killed.
We can see a connection throughout the first and second part to the book. In the first part, that chapter ends with Peeta admitting that he is in love with Katniss. Now, the second part to the book ends with Katniss calling out for Peeta. Katniss learns that two people were allowed to survive the games this year. In return for everything that Peeta had did for Katniss, Katniss now wanted to help him survive with her help. This mainly shows that Katniss started to develop more feelings for Peeta since they are going through a lot with the games and also, the love that he claims he has for Katniss plays a factor in this situation they are put in.
Katniss shows the sign of rebellion when she does a real ceremony for Rue's death during the games. In doing this, Katniss put Rue flowers in the Hunger Games arena and then she sang the song that Rue would sing to get the people to stop working for the day back in her district. This is a sign of rebellion because no one on the previous games has ever done that and also, the people who take part in the Games shouldn't show compassion for someone who they would end up having to kill.
My predictions for the end of the book is that they will both come out of the games alive. Since they have already showed that they have love for each other, I think that they will end up being together if they both get out of the Hunger Games.
